Jamymell Ray, 31, died Monday in a shooting near Omaha’s Miller Park. There are still no concrete updates from police as they continue to investigate, but one of the victim’s family members tells KETV Newswatch 7 that Ray and Charles Fisher, 30, were driving when they were shot.

Someone shot Fisher near 24th and Redick, the bullet was inches away from his heart.

“Shattered up his bone in his shoulder and exited out his back," Mimm’s said. “My son happened to be lucky but his best friend is not, he passed.”

Fisher and Ray grew up together. Mimms said they were driving through the park when several teenagers came up to their vehicle and one started shooting at random, hitting both the men. Fisher then drove to J-N-D Grocery.

“They came here for help, they are neighborhood people that felt they could get help here,” J-N-D Grocery employee David Adams said.

Mimms said it was a day she hoped would never come, but wasn’t shocked when it did.

“I just felt this day was coming,” Mimms said. “He’s depressed cuz you know Jamymell died in his arms.”

Mimms said she feels like she lost another son, and she’s hoping for swift justice.“I hope they catch whoever's doing this 'cause this is terrible,” Mimms said.

Fisher’s mom said that Ray leaves behind eight kids.

Hope brought a crowd together Tuesday night.

"We really need to pray police can get a handle on this," said a pastor in attendance.

The crowd gathered near 24th and Redick, where a day earlier gunfire took Ray's life and nearly took Fisher's.

"I'm here to today to show him support, because he showed me support. He'd do it for me," Fisher said.

Fisher said the whole incident happened quickly. He was driving near Miller Park when someone pulled out a gun and started shooting.

Ray's long-term girlfriend is left with unanswered questions. She asked to not be identified but said she saw Ray moments before the shooting. He had just visited her in the hospital. She said he was generous, loving and adored his eight children.

"My guy will never be forgotten," Fisher said. "He'll always be with me in my heart."
